Subject: (TFT) It's all in the storytelling

Remind me never to play in either your or DMG's campaigns. The
concept of a RPG DM/GM/FM is to act as a storyteller not a killer or "Monty
Haul". I'm surprised either of you have players. But then again
hopefully you have grown out of that middle school/junior high mentality in
the
many years since then. I know I can scare the hell out of my players more
with a sound than with an physical encounter. Scary sounds behind a door
turn more players away than a dozen gobbo's. Randy and Rick know how to do
this well in their Pbem games (Rick's is over but Randy's is still running
in
Sanctuary).
